an even worse injury pandemic on our OL not all that long ago? Maybe the Fisher era? I have a vague memory of the Ram's having started more different OL'men in one season than ever before in the history of the NFL.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
but I don't have a good argument against your proposition either. :laughing Guess it would depend on which Vets you're talking about. I would be surprised if AD returns... but MUCH stranger things have happened.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
Guess I'm just obstinate but no... I I don't think they 'should' be the worst. They are better than this, IMHO that is.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
I didn't hear you say "can I get an amen" but I read between the lines. :laughingby JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
In no way am I advocating a coaching change... at least as far as HC. Obviously there will be changes to assistants. Thru all this 'bad' I continue to think, believe, the 'fix' is present right now.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
players aren't executing... I'm aware of that... for any who may think I'm saying "it's all the coaches fault"... I'm NOT saying that.... but he is certainly the one who has to fix this mess.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
that it's really looking like McVay is more stubborn than Martz ever thought of being. Now I don't say that like "I know" that to be true... I'm still considering... but it sure seems to me like all signs point that way. When all the cogs are in place and greased I think McVay is fantastic... but working thru hiccups? and yes, I know, the Ram's this year have much worse than justby JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
I thought that when it happened... I did NOT see him grab his knee... and I've seen many knee injuries over the years and NEVER seen one in which the player did not grab his knee.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
McVay doesn't trust him.... and will not test him out. He's probably right, BTW... I think he is actually... but wow... there comes a point, ya know?by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
Or, well, I guess it is... we have too.. but it makes no sense. I don't even really have a 'theory'.... I mean, the "we sold out for one SB" idea has some merit, agreed... but it doesn't explain this year. I also don't really see the "resting on laurels" theory... or the "they've given up" theory. The injuries excuse is legit... no doubt... but even that doesnby JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
Or I guess that's the wrong word because I wasn't born during WWII. Those soldiers, airmen, were of a character I can't even imagine today. I know we like to think, today, that we'd 'rise to the occasion' if it came to world war... but I doubt it. And I'm including MY generation here... NOT just the youth of today. I don't think the world will ever see again men, and women, with that levelby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
because I really believe this current team should not be this bad. Something is amiss. That isn't to say I thought they'd repeat... or even not struggle.. but his?by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
Allen, Herbert, couple others, it’s always hard to admit the torch has passed but it has.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
I’ve heard both named on this injury. I don’t think it season ending, however.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
But in the NFL I don’t think it’s an automatic ejection. NCAA yesby JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
It’s true to a point - coaching and QBs - but that does not exclude them.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com

They’ve been decimated by injuries. We are relatively healthy compared to them.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
I’m in awe of their competitiveness this year. 2nd most in the NFL? They were the most injured but I think they moved up a spot.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
May have been as good and amazing as I’ve ever seen in the NFL. Is my jealousy showing?by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
You can't ever, or very seldom, try something for the first time and pronounce it a 'failure'. Had it WORKED would have been amazing even WITH the right personnel after a full training camp and half a season not doing it. - JamesJMby JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
sorry to hear that. Good friend of mine lost her dog this last week... she's close to inconsolable. Heartbreaking. on a brighter note: Our life long 'outdoor' cat, Batman... nearing 13yrs old, is now an indoor cat. He's showing his age so we FINALLY convinced him to move indoors... (until old age he HATED being indoors). He was a wild cat that we tamed. To survive outdoors where Iby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
